Prashant Hariharan
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurosurgery
BioPrashant Hariharan is a biomedical engineer specializing in the design of "fit-for-purpose" in vitro models to study neurological disorders. He earned his B.E. from the University of Mumbai, an M.S. from the University of Texas at Arlington, an M.Eng. from Cornell University and a PhD from Wayne State University. His doctoral work with Dr. Carolyn A. Harris focused on developing an "organ-chip" model of the choroid plexus to study how cerebrospinal fluid secretion is affected by hydrocephalus. As a postdoctoral scholar in the Fame lab, Prashant is adding new layers of physiological complexity to his previous model to investigate how the body’s circadian clock regulates choroid plexus-driven cerebrospinal fluid production and composition. This work aspires to deliver model-driven insights that can be translated into CSF-centric therapies and ultimately advance the pursuit of precision medicine for brain health.
